Portability is not an issue. The beauty about this is that we can simply
assume we have GNU tools and we do use Linux ... because that is what
Arch is based on.

I have no problem having GNU-specific features in there, as we can rely
on GNU find (or GNU whatever) being present. The only exception is
initramfs - however, no shell script is used in both the system and
initramfs.
